Based in a hospital, you’ll work with patients and colleagues to design treatment programmes and support patients until their treatment ends. From using a CT scanner to make a 3D image for a surgeon to preparing a patient for an MRI scan – you’ll be using some of the most complex and advanced technology. Diagnostic radiographers are also central to a wider multidisciplinary team, working and consulting with colleagues across various departments.]]> 2020-11-11 16:14:45 UTC https://padlet.com/anaboschllopis2/xthqfxab0xeggc2f/wish/913352574 anaboschllopis2 https://padlet.com/anaboschllopis2/xthqfxab0xeggc2f/wish/913354740 2020-11-11 16:15:17 UTC https://padlet.com/anaboschllopis2/xthqfxab0xeggc2f/wish/913354740 anaboschllopis2 https://padlet.com/anaboschllopis2/xthqfxab0xeggc2f/wish/913357165 As a diagnostic radiographer, you'll typically need to:
• Assess patients and their clinical requirements to work out which radiographic techniques to use
• Perform a range of radiographic examinations on patients to produce high-quality images
• Take responsibility for radiation safety in your work area, including checking equipment for malfunctions and errors
• Manage referrals to ensure patients receive a radiation dose as low as reasonably possible
• Supervise visiting staff and patients in radiation work areas
• Help in more complex radiological examinations, working with doctors such as radiologists and surgeons
• Provide support and reassurance to patients, taking into account their physical and psychological needs
• Supervise radiography and imaging support assistants
• Keep up to date with health and safety guidelines, including ionising radiation regulations, to protect yourself and others.
With experience, you may have the opportunity to get involved in management, teaching and research.
